在上海第一天

我现在上海阿。I cannot believe that I am in China, ordering dinner and wondering around.
It was very hard to order food in Chinese. I ordered it by using Japanese. haha. I also went to a park called 長風. We take a boat, which has a motor to go around the lake in the park. Our friends of Americans seem to me very excited, and bought a lot of stuff. I think I will be like that if I arrived here for the first time. Maybe, asian and western cultures are quite different. I appreciate my parents that let me attend this program. I think it will be amazing. However, I have to study Chinese more, and prepare for each journey to be satisfied more. I decided to remember each dish in Chinese. Tomorrow will be cumpus tour by teachers.

End of First Year

I have already finished my first year at UVA. It goes a lot faster than I expect, so I guess, it was fun. I regret that I do not participate enough activity, or make a good friends. I put my priority to study hard at the begining. Towards end, I sort of slack off to hurt my GPA a bit. I should study more at the end; sigh...
Overall, i made enough friends, and i cherish them (I think), but my roommate does not appreaciate me ><. I mean, I do not know why he does not like me; he does not hate me, but he hides many stuff from me. I am disappointed by him. I hope my house-mate next year will be great. some of them are pretty immature, and insist on their own thought strongly, and difficult to talk to them. I sometimes have nothing to say. It does not matter to me as long as we live good next year. Back to point, my UVa life is good. I learn many things while i am there, and meet many friends, not necessary good ones. at the same time, I feel worry about my future after I notice and learn so much things;in the long run, job, in the short run, studying in Shanghai this summer. I know from my experience that I know nothing about China and Chinese, but i am going there less than 3 weeks, so I am just studying Chinese now. Also, i hope i can get a good intern!! umm, i try to summarise what i feel in the first year at UVA. but i cannot. Hope my organaizing my writing will improve.

My next year's goal is that interact with more people and make a life-long friends, and study Finance more to achieve my future goal. of course, higher GPA than now; no more B's.

I am going to live in apartment, so I wanna have a coolest party at UVA. I gotta study many things. I think i shoud start have a cool setting in my apartment, alcohol, and games. Speaking to Game, I buy GTA4 PS3 version. It is amazing!!
